The South Carolina contingent of the Carolina Panthers showed up in a big way this weekend against the defending Super Bowl champions. The Panthers fell short on the scoreboard but all four Gamecocks played strong games. Jaycee Horn, Jadeveon Clowney and D.J. Wonnum all recorded sacks of Patrick Mahomes. Outside of Charlotte, the Gamecock trifecta of Rico Dowdel, Israel Mukuamu and Jalen Brooks all made critical plays in Dallas' thrilling win over Washington.
Nick Gargiulo was elevated to Denver's 53-man roster from the practice squad but he was inactive for the Broncos win over the Raiders.
